Emperor Akbar's Bonbon Book.

OF all the Mogul emperors Akbar was
by far the ablest and greatest, but Shah
Jehan was the most magnificent. The
Emperor Akbar succeeded To the throne
when he was hut IA years Of age, with
only the Puniab under his rule, He had
the wisdom "a show no distinction between
his Mohaml. alan and Hindoo subjects, and
made every effort to mold them into a com.
mon nationality. Born on Indian soil, he
made every effort TO give the country
of his birth what she has never had, a
nationality. He even went so far as only
TO marry into the families Of the royal
Hindoos. His military success was re,
markable, and at his death almost all
of India was firmly secured 10 his empire.
He loved and favored his friends, hut had
no use for those who proved themselves
his enemies. His double sided box Of
bonbons is a matter Of history. No one
dared 10 refuse the great emperor when he
wa offered a bonbon from this well
known box, although none could tell
whether il was an evidence of favor or OF
displeasure until after II had been eaten.
A bonbOn from one side Of the box meant
favors Of no mean kind, while one from
the other side meant a sudden d~rowsiness,
soon resulting in the sleep Of death. II
has been said that he came 10 his own
death by accidentally eating a bOnbor

oHlo's THISTLE exTeRMlNAToR.
Old silas BARRIERS Mission-A Foo 4
Thistles-Pecuiiar Delusion.

Old silas BARRIERS Mission-A Foe to
Thisties-Pecuiiar Deiusion.
Old Silas Barber is dead, aud his last
words were; "Don't let any thistles grow
upon my grave"
The announcement of his death will
cause universal regret all over Ohio,
where he was SO well known.
Since the days Of Johnny Appleseed,
Silas Barber has had more friends than
to eat ont Of pity or charity.
For half a century he had wandered
through this state. His last days he
spent in the Seneca county poor house.
He was well known all over Wood, Erie,
Lucas, Sandusky and Hancock counties.
He has no relatives in the world, and no
one can tell where he came from, although
there is a local tradition that he came
from Canada all alone in a boat more than
fifty years ago.
He had but one mission, one object, on
earth, and that was to exterminate all
kinds of thistles. For the entire half cen
fury he never relented in his warfare upon
these enemies Of the farmer. From dawn
to darkness, with scythe, gruband hoe, he
cut out and killed them. No one could tell
how he lived; he refused pay for his
work, and none of the farmers could i'm
pose on him, for he would not work unless
he could cut the thistles.
In winter it was noticed that he mi
grated with the birds southwark, but
back he would come with the thistles
again in the spring. He had one other
failing. He imagined, sometimes, that he
was a great general; at other times he
thought that he was an officer of the law,
with full power to make arrests.
Years ago some practical joker sent him
with orders to arrest the chief of police al
Tiffin. BY pretense he succeeded in get
ting the chief of police to show him into
the interior Of the Jail. He then read an
imaginary warrant and locked the police
captain up in a cell for a long time.
It was a more common practice to in
duce him TO arrest some country swain who
was counting his sweetheart. Armed Will
his imaginary warrant he would force his
way into the presence Of the loving couple,
and in spite of tears, p~rotestations and en-
treaties he would make the arrest. II,
would walk a dozen miles to arrest any
! man, and more than once has he aided III,
police and constables in discharging theil
duties.
Judges, preachers, congressman. who's,
early homes were in Sandusky county, at
Seneca. tell amusing stories of how ''Oli
Silas" captured them. When the fore,
roads were fenced mp Silas Barber did no
approve Of il. He would tear down rod
of tho f.n,fnr In nrlar that bis fuNnriI,
thistle fields might remain open and ia,
common property of the whole world
But the farmers always lorgave him tn
mischief for the good that he wrought
Conductors were kind to him and all III,

The troops from Keogh camped at

day.
The newest thing in relation to the
scare il that four companies Of troops
have been sent from Fort Meade and
will be stationed midway between
that poilt and Standing Rock agency
TO act as a check on the Sioux should
they make any break. Notwithstand-
ing the prevalent belief in there being
something In the Crow outbreak, the
return OF the troops TO Keogh by this
mornings train would seem TO bear
evidence TO falsity of the reports.
Certain il is that the passenger train
from the west brought the Keogh con-
tingant safely back 10 their quarters
and there had been no bloodshed, nor
did the troops 20 to battle. Ouly the
bare fact of the military having re-
turned is known, the hour being to
